Fake FBI email with vriusI got this off google news, but figur3ed it would be good to spread the message to everyone on the site.
A computer virus that’s finding its way to inboxes is fronting itself as a message from the FBI.
If you get what looks like an e-mail from the FBI, beware, it may not be what it seems.
A mass e-mail infiltrating inboxes tells people they are being monitored by the feds and they’ve surfed illegal websites. But it’s a scam.
The FBI says the e-mail is fraudulent and the attachment contains a computer virus, so don’t open it.
Consumers who receive the e-mail can report it to the FBI’s Internet Fraud Complaint Center at

messages v2.0Messages are now limited to 160 char but it counts for you. You could always send more than one but this prevents anyone from sending a 5000 message to your journal and messing it up, espeically if you were on dialup. Also if you have sms / text message forwarding enabled, a littl emini green cell phone shows up next to the send button, alerting the writer that you receive messages on the go.

messages updateSo here's the deal, peeps kept asking me who wrote the letters, I was sick of answering so now if you are logged in when you write it the message gets sent from you. If you are not logged it it comes from "guest".
[size=m]The important part[/size]
If you do not wish to receive messages at all open your preferences ( the switch icon in your contorl panel) and select no where it says accept messages, The post it will no longer appear on your journal.
If you want to receive message sonly from logge din site members then open your preferences ( the switch icon in your contorl panel) and select no where it says accept anonymous messages.
I will soon ad speciifc IP blocking, I am just deciding on the intereface icon for it. Right now I think this will get the basics covered and remember you can also have messages forwarded to your cell phone!!

New e:message cell phone integrationI am pleased to announce:
As the first upgrade to the messages system you can now have your site based post it messages auto forwarded as text messages to your cell phone. To add your cell phone number and carrier simply click on the mini green cell phone in your control panel. After that any messages sent to you on the site using the new post it pad, should be automatically forwarded to your cell phone via SMS. No more waiting for messages, you can now get them on the go. Please keep in mind that cell phone messages are generally limited to 160 characters and we need more people to test it out. Also, the message sstill remain on the site so that if there si any problem you can still retreieve them
Under no circumstances will anyone get ahold of your cellphone number. The site simply forwards the message along without the end user ever seeing your number. Similar to the way the email system works.
